Kingdom Hearts 3D: Dream Drop Distance is a title that many fans are anticipating on 3DS this year, though release details outside of Japan haven't been forthcoming. Apparently there's been a slip-up at Square Enix, however, and we may now know the European release date.

As reported by IGN, Square Enix's French store briefly listed 27th July as a release date, before hastily changing it to 'summer 2012'. It could be a simple administrative error or a genuine slip-up, but in either case it's clear that European gamers don't have too long to wait.

Will this include the rather attractive 10th Anniversary Edition as well as the standard version? We'll keep our eyes peeled for official details.
